Black serves as the backdrop for many a hue, but when it comes to gold, there is no combo richer or more classic. The black blazer with gold buttons has always been Balmain's signature look, and they feature it every season. This fashionista saved up a gift card to snag this classic, and I know I will have it forever. I found one that is just as striking at a fraction of the cost and have highlighted it for you in the above credits. To keep it kind of casual but rich looking, I paired it with a black velvet jean. This one is by J Brand, but you can pair it with whatever luxe black jean that you have  in your closet. In keeping with the gold detailing, complete the look with a gold buckle belt and an interesting shoe or boot with gold detailing. These brocade booties are entirely fabulous, and even more so since they were reduced during the final Saks sale. Chanel's Gabrielle bag is my most favorite and versatile bag. I use it nearly everyday as it can be worn in a multitude of ways, as a shoulder bag, cross body or back pack. Next time you are digging through your closet for something rich looking and understated, reach for the gold.
